After just 13 games, Shareef O’Neal is planning to leave the Bruins.
O’Neal — the son of NBA Hall of Famer Shaquille O’Neal — is transferring from UCLA, he announced on social media on Wednesday night. The sophomore has averaged only 2.2 points and 2.9 rebounds in just more than 10 minutes per game so far this season.
“After meeting with Shareef on Tuesday, he told me he plans to transfer,” UCLA coach Mick Cronin said, via Adam Zagoria. “We fully support his decision and are wishing him all the best.”
O’Neal was a four-star Rivals.
